What's inside the PDF
- 15 reading questions (Compréhension écrite) — authentic document types: notices, adverts, emails, articles — with a full answer key and explanations.
- 2 writing prompts (Expression écrite Sections A & B) — the Section A fait divers comes with a complete model answer.
- 2 speaking topics (Expression orale Sections A & B) — with example questions to ask and objections to counter.
- The exam format at a glance and the official TEF-to-CLB/NCLC conversion chart (IRCC ranges for tests after December 10, 2023).
What a PDF can't do
Paper can't play audio, keep exam time, or score you. The listening section — 40 questions against the clock with recordings played once — only works online. When you've finished the PDF, take the free online practice test for instant scoring with a CLB estimate, or create a free account for full-length timed mocks in all four sections — including listening with real audio.
Ready for the real thing?
Full 40-question timed mocks in all four modules, real listening audio, AI feedback on writing and speaking, and an estimated CLB band after every attempt.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free TEF Canada practice test PDF?
Yes — the PDF on this page is completely free and downloads instantly, no email or signup required. It contains 15 exam-style reading questions with a full answer key, one writing prompt per section with a model answer, two speaking topics, and the official TEF-to-CLB conversion chart.
Does the PDF include the answer key?
Yes. Every reading question comes with the correct answer and a short explanation, and the Section A writing prompt includes a complete model answer in the expected exam style.
Is this PDF in the new TEF Canada format?
Yes — the questions follow the current exam format, and the score conversion chart uses IRCC's equivalency ranges for tests taken on or after December 10, 2023. Beware of older PDFs circulating online that still show the pre-2023 format and thresholds.
Does the PDF cover listening?
No PDF can — listening requires audio. You can take a free full-length listening mock with real audio, played exam-style, on this site with a free account.
PDF or online practice — which is better?
Use both. The PDF is great for offline reading practice and handwritten writing drills. The online mocks add what paper can't: real audio, exam timers, automatic scoring, and an estimated CLB band after every attempt.
